Re: Bog

 

Morning all.
 
Interesting that just a few miles east of me, is very rocky sandy soil.  The southern portions of my garden are very gravelly, although still Manitoba gumbo.  A friend of mine about 45 minutes east gardens in sand.  She's replenished the soil there many times, but Mother Nature keeps reverting it back within a few years.  Mind you, even though most of her garden is at the bottom of a hill, she rarely gets iris rot.

El,
     For that effect here, I have to use a very large pot or similar container.  Sand doesnât hold water...
